Mincho,
That is a very difficult position to be in.
However if exchange isnt till xmas and completion January you have some time on your hands BUT if you need to sell all your shares to pay for the house what happens IF and it's a massive if, things dont go according to plan?
You've said it's your dream home, is it your wife's dream home too? Does your wife really want it? IF have you discussed with your wife how she would feel if you couldnt buy this house? If you didnt sell?
The problem you have is if you couldnt buy the house would your wife be really angry and end up with arguments? Would you be really angry if you sold out and the rns lands? Would you be angry at her for 'making you sell'
It's really tricky because something like this could cause real friction and resentment so the best thing to probably do is speak to her discuss how you feel,see how she feels and go from there as theres nothing worse in a marriage than anger and resentment even if you dont mean there to be.
This doesnt help really I guess its make sure you tell her how you feel
Good luck with whatever you choose to do.
Sorry for my rambling :o)
